Shoespiration – Steve Madden Sidney Dress Sandals

August was full of adventure for me!  I was in Savannah, GA earlier in the month and had a wonderful time.  I will detail that trip in a future blog post.  I also spent time with my two Godsons and niece in SC mid-August.  We had an 80s themed party which I will also share in a future blog post.  By the end of August, we were back to photo shooting for the blog.  I cannot wait to feature that post because it deals with the legend of Moll Dyer, a local woman who lived a century or so ago and was rumored to be a witch.  Perfect post for October!  😉  (more…)

Lizzy’s Latest – Pelle Moda Floral Strappy Sandals

There’s a back story to these beautiful heels.  I had been eyeing them on the Boston Proper website for almost a year, but hesitated to purchase them because I’d never purchased Pelle Moda shoes.  I didn’t know how they would feel on my feet and I didn’t want the hassle of returning them by mail.

Richmond, VA – Maymont – New Orleans, LA Adventure Highlights: Part 1

When my Forever BFF, Tammy, and I were discussing possible destinations for our girls trip last year, she suggested New Orleans, LA.  Although, I had visited the city several times over the years, Tammy had never been there.  She had only heard good stories about it from her late friend, Carlos.     (more…)

Happy Fourth of July!

Happy Fourth of July!  Today we celebrate America’s birthday.  It was 242 years ago today that the original 13 colonies adopted the Declaration of Independence.  Today, it is a day for family and friends to come together and celebrate our nation’s birthday with barbecues, parades, concerts, fireworks, and the like.  My family and I will certainly be participating in the festivities.  🙂 (more…)

Shoespiration – White House Black Market Tassel Tie Heels

Oh my goodness!  Where to begin?  I apologize for my extended absence from the blog, but life got busy.  I’ve been traveling too.  I took my niece, Kristin, on our annual girl’s trip to Hersheypark in Hershey, PA.  We had a great time and I will write more about this in a future blog post.   (more…)

Lizzy’s Latest – Jessica Simpson Beeya Two-Piece Platform Sandals

After Easter, I went a little overboard with shoe shopping.  I bought around 10 pairs of shoes in one sitting!  These sky-high heels were in that bunch.  I’ve never featured Jessica Simpson heels on the blog because a lot of her heels are too high for me and not necessarily the most comfortable.  However, I took a chance on this pair because I love red stiletto heels and I wanted to pair them with this beautiful floral romper.  (more…)

Solomon’s Island, Maryland – Andrew’s Making Money

Hersheypark amusement park in Hershey, PA is such a happy place.  I was so excited to return last July with my Godson, Andrew.  Earlier in the summer, I had taken his sister, Kristin, to the park and we had a wonderful time.  This time around, I looked forward to riding more roller coasters because Andrew is taller than Kristin.  🙂

Andrew’s a Hershey’s, one candy taller than Kristin. 🙂

Shoespiration – Vince Camuto Windy Moto Boots

Winter has overstayed its welcome here in the DC area in my humble opinion.  On the first day of Spring, we got hit with a snow storm that dumped several inches of snow.  March has yet to see a 60-degree day here and I am just annoyed.  Sigh! (more…)

Lizzy’s Latest – White House Black Market Leather Tie boots

It was mid-January in Southern Maryland and after a cold spell, Mother Nature gave us a beautiful weekend.  Relatively warm days like these are few and far between in the wintertime here, so Dad and I took advantage of the nice weather and scheduled a photo shoot. (more…)

Southern Maryland – Out of the Mouths of Babes

Every Christmas, I look forward to spending time with my Godsons, Andrew and Joshua, and my niece, Kristin.  Usually, I get the two older kids, Andrew and Kristin, for a couple of days and we go on an adventure.  Last year we went to ICE and this year, we went ice skating.  I was so excited to share this experience with them because I loved ice skating as a kid.  My Forever BFF, Tammy, and I would spend many Friday nights at the ice skating rink at La Jolla’s University Town Center (UTC) flirting with the cute guys as we skated to our favorite songs.
